WHAT SHIPPING OPTION SHOULD I USE?
It is highly recommended that you purchase an expedited shipping option in addition to thermal packaging to increase the likelihood that your order will arrive unmelted. Neither the ice packs nor thermal envelopes are designed to last the 4-5 days that standard shipping may take to arrive. In most cases and especially during warm weather months the ice packs will last approximately two days and will not last past 3 days when packed with thermal envelopes.
